With over ten years of experience in the field of education, I currently hold the position of Assistant Principal at Valley Collaborative Middle School Alternative Programming. My career began at New England Center for Children, working with students with Autism. My passion for creating inclusive environments for all learners began here, and led me to advance my undergraduate Psychology degree from Worcester State University, to a Master’s in Applied Behavior Analysis from Florida Institute of Technology. While earning my Master’s, I also became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). With my experience and education, I transitioned to Valley Collaborative, where my passions and perspectives were fostered and expanded, due to the incredible environment here at Valley. My goal is to continue to foster a love of learning, collaboration, and inclusivity for all students, while fostering meaningful relationships with students, families, and staff.
